Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 8
इत्युक्त्वा चातिदुःखार्तो रामो मतिमतां वरः । प्रणामं दंडवच्चक्रे चक्रपाणिरिवापरः
ityuktvā cātiduḥkhārto rāmo matimatāṃ varaḥ | praṇāmaṃ daṃḍavaccakre cakrapāṇirivāparaḥ
ពោលដូច្នេះហើយ ព្រះរាម—ដែលរងទុក្ខយ៉ាងខ្លាំង និងជាអ្នកប្រាជ្ញលើសគេ—បានក្រាបសាស្តាង្គដូចដំបងដេករាប ដូចជាព្រះវិษ្ណុអ្នកកាន់ចក្រ មួយអង្គទៀត។
